Good Morning & Happy Hump Day Stamping Friends!!

Bianca is doing much better & she's back in school today.  I am doing fine despite not having much of an appetite but I do eat soup twice a day to keep up my strength.  Brandon is the only one that hasn't gotten sick yet & I hope he continues to resist this bug!

Today I'm sharing a birthday card I made for a friend.  Her birthday actually passed while I was ill & I felt so bad for not having her card to her on time---one of my goals this year!  I whipped this together using the sketch from Fab Friday.  I love that it gives me the opportunity to play with texture....you all know how much I LOVE it & I hope she enjoys it too!  I'm also entering my creation in the following challenges:


Thanks so much for stopping by & have a great rest of the day!
Until Next Time,
Hugs & Love,
